Apr-Jun profit came in below consensus, leaving a slightly negative impression.

Sales were weak partly due to the Middle East situation, while higher raw

material costs also weighed.

ASEAN and Australia: Competition with Chinese OEMs worsened due to higher

gasoline prices. In the Philippines, the auto market temporarily cooled following

the declaration of a state of emergency.

No meaningful additional information on the joint development of humanoid

robots that could raise market expectations. Details on collaboration with Honda

and Nissan were also limited.

Supply chain risks remain due to the possibility that the Strait of Hormuz may

not be safely navigable.

Apr-Jun (1Q) results: Revenue was ¥619.9bn (+2% YoY) and OP was ¥10.1bn. OP

missed consensus of ¥15.6bn.
